WBA lightweight champion Brandon Rios is poised to face the winner of the upcoming WBC championship rematch between belt owner Humberto Soto and challenger Urbano Antillon. Soto-Antillon takes place on the May 7 pay-per-view undercard to Manny Pacquiao-Shane Mosley at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas

Humberto Soto has really got to man up and take the fight against Brandon Rios. However, Soto not taking the fight against Brandon Rios is no excuse for Brandon Rios to fight shot Marco Antonio Barrera.

Brandon should ask Bob for a fight against Guerrero vs Katsidis winner... Hopefully Kats! Then on to JMM!!!!! Although I know it would be a miracle because of the GBP/TopRank beef.. If I could have it my way, thats how it would go.

He's a young fighter and is still developing. Let him make some money and improve his craft.

He has a very crowd pleasing style, but one that will probably lead to a short career. He eats a lot of punches.

I can't believe people are expecting him to immediately jump up to 140 and fight Maidana, etc. He should stay at 135 for as long as he can. Soto and Katsidis are both great matchups for him. But if he really can land a payday against MAB, that should be his first order of business. People have to realize that most boxers make **** money, all things considered.

I love how boxing fans always find the negative aspect of everything, even when things look bright.
